<p>[QUOTE="Indianhead65, post: 170871, member: 103422"]The mint will continue to charge as much as they want for whatever sets they sit and think to put together because they know very well that there are enough collectors out there who will purchase these sets and they will make their money. I absolutely will not buy any of these overpriced sets or singles. I too, will continue to collect older coins. How many people do you think have fallen for the popular "first strike" label that alot of these coin dealers and shop at home tv ripoff shows have put on these $5 gold Buffalos. The mint says these coins were not shipped out in the order they were minted, so therefore, there is no way possible anyone can tell what is a first strike and what isnt. These coins that were deemed "first strikes" are selling for up to and over $3000. I personally wouldnt buy one at regular issue price let alone fall into the scam some of these dealers are putting out to the collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
